GENERAL SANTOS CITY – The Department of Agriculture (DA) distributed on Thursday around PHP140 million worth of agricultural machinery to farmers in Region 12 (Soccsksargen) as part of flagship farm mechanization program.

Arlan Managelen, DA-Region 12 executive director, said the release of the additional farm machinery is part of the agency’s continuing interventions to help increase productivity and improve the plight of local farmers in the region.

He cited the need to sustain local food production in the wake of the continuing coronavirus disease 2019 (Covid-19) pandemic.
